Comment OSX - 4 gigs RAM, 14 gigs swap?!? (Score 1) 544
Unless I'm reading the activity monitor wrong, I have 4 gigs of physical RAM, and 14 gigs of virtual RAM at the moment. This is a dual 2ghz G5, running 10.4.7.
I currently have Photoshop, Firefox, Azureus, Skype, Adium, Entourage, Mail, and Safari running.
The thing is, I am constantly running out of memory, or rather, constantly getting down to 40megs free. Trying to do anything in Photoshop at that time is incredibly slow, which is crazy because PS has it's own swap files/scratch discs...
